What is the CMP?

The Conference of the Parties, the supreme body of the Convention, shall serve as the meeting of the
Parties to the Kyoto Protocol. All States that are Parties to the Kyoto Protocol are represented at the
Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Kyoto Protocol (CMP), while
States that are not Parties participate as observers. The CMP reviews the implementation of the Kyoto
Protocol and takes decisions to promote its effective implementation.
